Likely Darren McFadden will miss Thursday Night Football

Nov 08, 2011

The Raiders have already put the Denver Broncos in the rear-view mirror to the point where they are in the process of conducting a walkthrough for Thursday night’s game in San Diego.

During his weekly press conference, coach Hue Jackson said he didn’t know if running back Darren McFadden would be a part of it. During the media window, there was no sign of McFadden. Given the limited amount of time before the next game and the fact that McFadden apparently still hasn’t so much as gone out for a leisurely job, chances are he won’t face the Chargers.

Fantasy Impact:

Michael Bush would again be turned to as the bell cow with McFadden out.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Adam Schefter

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Mike Garafolo

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
